Duran Duran(named after a character in Roger Vadim's sci-fi classic, Barbarella) are an electronic pop-rock band that were part of the new wavemusic movement in the early 1980s. Created by Nick Rhodes(keyboards) and John Taylor(bass) in 1978, with the later addition of Roger Taylor(drums), Andy Taylor(guitar), and Simon Le Bon(lead vocals), the band have sold over 70 million records and are the most commercially successful of the new romanticbands. Their songs were cheerful, hook-laden pop that fared well on the radio, but what many remember best about Duran Duran are their iconic music videos. Though many of the videos were tongue-in-cheek, the band never quite escaped the glamorous and decadent jet set image their early videos projected. The band spent on an average more than a six figure sum (£), on first 3 albums videos (each) alone.

Drug (It's Just A State Of Mind) Lyrics

Duran Duran

(lebon, rhodes, taylor)

Take me in the morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay

Take me,
Take me, take me, take me, take me
Take, take, take, take.

Before you slide into the wide
There's something i want you to know
(what you see is what you want)
In all your stretch of conciousness
You've still got a long way to go
(what you want its what you need)
Some make you spin,
Some make you sweat,
Its only here for you to choose (choose me)
And if you try, an alternative high
Then tell me what have you got to loose now..

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay - up all night
Up all night

The hit, the hit
The hit to fit reality,
Its just a state of mind

(what you see is what you want)
And you'll admit its more than just an axe that you've got to grind
(what you want is what you need)

We'll make a spin
We'll make you sweat
All you've got to do is use me (use me)
Some like it hot
But i like it wet
So tell me what have we got to lose now..

(chorus)

A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug

(use me) (use me) (choose me) (choose me) (use me) (use me)

A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug
A drug, its a drug

(chorus)

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling slow
Take me when the mood is right

(chorus)

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling slow
Take me when the mood is right
Up all night

(chorus) (mixed until fade..)
